Spectrum SMF Writer handles the difficult SMF record parsing for you automatically. You just specify which fields you want to see.

Spectrum SMF Writer also converts the arcane date and time fields and reformats them into an attractive report.

The sample SMF report below was created with Spectrum SMF Writer, the low-cost 4GL SMF report writer. It reads as input the SMF file and selects just the type 100 DB2 accounting records with IFCID = 1. (See SMF 100 record layout.) It then prints a report line for each address space found in these DB2 statistics records. (Note that each SMF record has a variable number of the QWSA statistical sections containing the address space information.) The report shows timing information about those DB2 address spaces.

All of this with just a couple of dozen lines of code!
